South Bay pickup and delivery covers Chula Vista, National City, and Imperial Beach on the same route. No delivery charge inside our standard radius.
Can you clean a hand-knotted Persian or Oriental rug?
Yes. Hand-knotted rugs need an in-plant process — full immersion, colorfastness testing, flat drying on racks. Takes 5–7 days door-to-door. In-home extraction on a genuine hand-knotted rug is a shortcut that risks dye migration and fiber damage.
Will the fringe get cleaner?
Yes. Fringe is cotton and picks up every footprint. We hand-brush the fringe with a dedicated brightener before the main wash, rinse it separately, and re-comb it straight while the rug dries. The difference is immediate.
